Buying your freehold

Buying your freehold

Many owners of long-leasehold houses have the right to buy their freehold.

A similar right may be available to a group of owners of long-leasehold flats in a block to buy their freehold. We advise on the various elements of each of these processes, including:

  • assessing eligibility
  • instructing valuers and surveyors
  • financing the purchase
  • participation agreements
  • the statutory notices
  • attendance at tribunal
  • the creation of new long leases for applicable flats following enfranchisement

Enfranchisement is not a one-sided and inevitable process. We advise freeholders, intermediate landlords and management companies on their rights and responsibilities throughout the process.

We identify our clients’ needs and tailor our work to each set of circumstances, providing high quality, cost effective advice. We are a multi-disciplinary practice and work collaboratively to provide a comprehensive service across all of our practice areas.
